Are you talking about MM for Windows or for Android? I don't know of any extensibility (yet) for the Android version.
Under Windows, there's no serial comm support in the automation API, but you can create a program on the side that handles serial and responds to event notifications from MM, or accepts serial comm and turns it into.
If that's what you're looking for, and you want the Windows program to be in Processing, then Processing would need to support Windows COM interface to get at MM. What little I know of Processing, tho, I don't think it runs under Windows; so you'd need to write the side program in Visual Basic or some other language. (I've used Python successfully.)
